Chapter 33: Taking Refuge in the Mountains to Lay Low
Lian Fei had wanted to do this for a long time. To punch those arrogant, overbearing guards, one by one. Lian Fei was highly skilled; between the experience of fighting in underground matches in her previous life and the agility she had honed running across the mountains and plains in this one, crushing these pampered, bullying fools was effortless. After shouting, "Let go of them," the men merely glanced at her, ignoring her entirely, but their hands—
Feeling Wang Siyu persistently following behind her, An Ruoran finally sighed. Since she was so kind-hearted, if Wang Siyu had something to say, she might as well listen.
Ye Hansheng ignored me and insisted on carrying me to the boat landing before setting me down.
You probably don't know my buddy's true nature—or rather, his personality—yet, do you?
His expression was deeply sorrowful, but this time, he held back the tears welling in his eyes and did not weep.
Yet, in his mind, how could someone with such peerless cultivation as his great-uncle ever be wounded by another?
Qiao Anming felt like a defeated deserter in that moment, while she stood like a proud peacock.
Ye Qingcheng smoothed back her hair, tied it into a ponytail with a ribbon, and pulled open the closet.
Du Ruo lowered her head, falling silent, though her heart felt as if a cup of hot water had been poured over it, searing with a stinging pain.
"Tonight, only the innocent may sleep." Behind the wall of wind came a hoarse, weary voice.
Furthermore, since her right eye had crystallized, it had shown no reaction; the eyelid had lost all sensation and could not open. Conversely, the fierce and volatile hidden genes within her body seemed to have entered hibernation; unless she was provoked into a great rage, they would generally not flare up.
Seeing them so happy together, Su Qiaoqiao suddenly remembered the day Si Haocheng helped her fix up her house, when everyone had been just as joyful.
Although it was nothing for experts like Jiang Li and Xiao Ling'er, it was quite a struggle for the ordinary guild members.
After all, they were experts themselves, especially Xiao Ling'er, who had been famous for a long time and should have been quite experienced in such matters.
"She saved me, after all. If not for her, I might have fallen to my death that day... You didn't kill her, did you?" Zuo Ziteng looked at me nervously.
At this moment, he only wanted to lift his chin and proudly pose that question to the world—the one he had asked himself over and over again.
"That thing can be detected by the hunters," Du Youlan replied, perhaps assuming I was going to scout for information on them.
Is that so? It seems he has made his decision. It is unexpectedly similar, indeed.
The emergency exit door closed. The previously gentle tone turned icy in a second, and Song Jie said calmly, "Time to work," hanging up immediately before the person on the other end could reply.
"I see! You're only giving up everything you have because you want to be with Yang Ling!" He had spent the entire journey summing up all the reasons, concluding that if not for Yang Ling, Wu Yu would never have made such an incomprehensible move.
At that moment, the man's heart skipped a beat. He held his breath, turned slightly, and cast a puzzled gaze toward Wu Jiejin, who was still lying on the solitary chair.
Taking advantage of the moment the giant earth snake turned its head, Guan Xi lunged forward and dived into the deep grass.
Next, Guang Yuanzi formed a seal with his left hand and chanted, casting a profound spell. Once the incantation was finished, the white jade pendant transformed into a beam of white light, shot into the ground beneath his feet, and vanished.
Seeing that she had not achieved her goal, Zhao Lin politely left her contact information before driving her luxury sports car out of Chu Qingya's sight.
This time, Liu Chun went straight to the palace to meet Zhu Di. Considering how Liu Chun had been avoiding Zhu Di lately for fear of being extorted, there was no way Zhu Di would let him off the hook now that he had come of his own accord.
